Celebrations in Hereford

The leader of Herefordshire Council, Councillor Roger Phillips, told Bulls News late last night that he has already spoken to other councillors about how to celebrate Hereford United's promotion to League One. He has offered his congratulations to all involved.

Further details are expected later.

Meanwhile local political figures have also spoken about the promotion. This from Jesse Norman, the Conservative candidate.

"What an epic achievement. Graham Turner, John Trewick, the staff and of course the team have done a phenomenal job. A great cup run and a second promotion in three seasons in the league ... amazing.

"Now we need everyone to get behind the club and together find some way to turn Edgar Street into the stadium which the fans, the club and the city deserve."

More to follow.
